Myself teaching!The best part of my job is.... that I don't have to work all summer long, and still get money!! (I know I'm suppose to say touching lives and yada yada yada...) The fact of it all is that being a school teacher is really quite hard, and no one ever tells you quite how hard it is because it is "such a wonderful profession to sculpt the future of our society...(and yada yada yada)". You see what I mean?
I am into my second week of school now and for the first time (ever) I feel like I know what I'm doing. Deep down I know that I really do know what I'm doing, but now I feel like it too! Something about being in that 3rd year. 3rd times a charm, or something like that?
So yes, I am enjoying my job for once... perhaps I'll start blogging about my job more often now. You see, this blog is my happy place, and school does not necessarily equal happy.
Now this is the hardest part, and really I guess it doesn't sound all that hard, but it feels hard. I don't have much time for myself. I'm up at 5:30, out the door by 7:00 at the very very latest, and home at 4:00. At which point I am either walking the dog or cooking dinner, then cleaning dinner. THEN 8:00 is the magic hour when Hubs and I crash on the couch to watch a few mindless episodes of South Park on the Netflix before crashing in the bed promptly at 9:00 to sleep. Wash, Rinse, Repeat. It just seems like Hubs and I are always tired, and THAT is hard.
This is when I hear my Mom's voice in my head telling me to take Vitamin B Complex supplement pills.
(And yes, I am writing this post at school.... shhhhh)
Now I am wondering how people with kids manage all this!? You people are amazing!
